Depression can mean many different things. It can feel like an all encompassing fog, affecting every aspect of your life one day, and then feel like a small shadow in the corner the next. Sometimes it can hide for days, or months, only to come up again without warning. Through an integrative approach we will learn warning signs, challenge thought patterns, and work towards healthy thought patterns and rediscovering joy.

Depression is often a response to having experienced profound psychological pain. It is a way for us to retreat or numb ourselves from the overwhelming emotions of such stressful circumstances. It acts as a protective shield in a way. In therapy, we will work towards addressing the underlying sources that are contributing to feelings of deep sadness. This can be a difficult task and as such it can be helpful to include strategies alongside our reflective work which may include CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, and Behavioural Activation.
